Come saints, and see the place
Where your Redeemer lay;
No difficulties should be feared,
While Jesus leads the way.
The Ruler of the world,
And Lord of all supreme,
Is now by John the Baptist’s hand
Immersed in Jordan’s stream.
The Father sees and owns
The object of his love,
The Spirit on his head descends,
In likeness of a dove.
Come then, pursue the path
Your Saviour trod before;
And think, whene’er you bear the cross,
The cross he also bore
Descend the watery grave,
And never yield to fear;
An honour is on you conferred,
To follow Jesus there.
With holy zeal and love,
Come all ye ransomed ones;
The Spirit too will rest on you,
And God pronounce you sons.
